<p>do we get the SAR in snail mail? i'm worried....I have received my SAR online. other than that i haven't received anything.</p>
<p>We received our snail mail SAR about 10-14 days after submitting online.</p>
<p>We never got an SAR by snail mail. Only electronically. But all the schools say they've got it, so my guess is that it doesn't much matter.</p>
<p>FAFSA states that a SAR will be sent to the student's email if an email addresss was provided. If not provided, a SAR will be snail mailed to the student instead. That's why some people get them in the mail while others do not.</p>
<p>It was recommended to us at one time to not put our email address initially so we could receive the SAR hardcopy by mail - for the life of me I can't remember why! We did go back and make corrections and then did list our email.</p>
<p>The online appliation tells you your SAR right after you file it. You can go back and view it, but it doesn't impart any more info!</p>
